Yeah, it's not bad. The social stuff I can handle for the most part. I still tend to have mood swings, otherwise, I'm generally happy. I'm sure it'll be fine and I'm not freting over it.

I'm neurotypical, scored almost entirely in the left half of the circle.

Well, you can percieve yourself hunting. I can't. It's my cross to bare. :(

Huntington's Disease is where you have weird movements and lack coordination. Both of which are symptoms of AS. I use to have a pretty bad tic, it's gone away for the most part, aside from the finger thing, but I cover it up pretty well. I'm not as clumsy as I used to be. It isn't Huntington's Disease though.

I thought most aspies lacked coordination and walked funny. So is it a name for what is exclusively an AS symptom or is it also a seperate thing itself?

Your Aspie score: 79 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 128 of 200
You are very likely neurotypical


Diagnostic prediction for Score Prediction
ADD/ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder) 105 You will probably be able to receive the diagnosis
Social phobia 83 You might be able to receive the diagnosis
Dyscalculia 72 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis
Schizophrenia 67 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis
Asperger/HFA/PDD 62 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis
OCD 55 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis
Autism 54 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis
Dyslexia 41 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis
Dyspraxia 38 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis
Bipolar 26 It is unlikely you will be able to receive the diagnosis

Hmm. This isn't the first time that a test has suggested that I may have ADD.

Why did the test ask like the same questions just worded differently a few times?

Yeah, except I'm probably not neurotypical in at least one respect. The stuttering is probably a "wiring problem". If so, I don't know if it would be something in the brain or in the nerves between the brain and the muscles used in speech. The last I heard, they don't actually know what causes it. If you saw me at a bad moment, struggling to make a sound while my face contorted bizarrely, you'd not assume that I was neurotypical. ;)

Not sure... perhaps to try to slip you up?
